I watched my father fade away from Alzheimers over the course of 5 years before he passed. Based on anecdotal stories in a support group, we were very lucky that he realized early on that something was wrong and he was very cooperative throughout. Other families in the support group experienced everything from lighthearted denial to emotions running amok. Personally, I want some solid tests so I can have reliable information to make sure I end my days as myself.
